Well, that would give you reasonable odds of voting in Albert Gore.
Elect Steve Jobs President of the United States
;)
well, the mac community is probably larger than the perot community.

Thats one of the ugliest websites i've ever seen. I thought Apple-monkies were supposed to be kings of visual stuff.
Why should I vote for him? Did he invented Internet?
Get him out of Microsoft!
:-)
Floating face-down in a river of regret...and thoughts of you...
He'll run the country without having any idea of how it actually works, fire anyone who doesn't follow his vision, steal ideas from other countries...
By God, he might be the best president yet!
Microsoft offers their market leading CEO Steve Balmer. When asked about the news, Balmer replied by leaping around screaming "Voters! Voters! Voters!".
Rumors that Bill Gates will be a Cheyney style puppetmas^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H vice-president have not been confirmed.
I still have more fans than freaks. WTF is wrong with you people?
"I hereby declare that The White House will no longer be boring "beige", it shall be painted "Lickable Blueberry".
The Apple hoardes debate among themselves whether the country is now just "insanely" better, or "miraculously" better.
Sometimes it's best to just let stupid people be stupid.
Not to be confused with http://www.jobsforTHEpresident.org/, as I'd really like to see him get a new one.

Money I owe, money-iy-ay
Best wishes,

With Steve as president we might be some insanely great leadership, as opposed to the normal insane leadership we have now.
If he gets in, won't his first act be to demolish all the important buildings and replace them with curvy, translucent, pastel-coloured plastic contraptions?
Carrying handles would be useful though. Threat of Al-Qaeda? Just move Washington to the praries, they'll never find them there!

It's not like anyone will be able to beat Sharpton anyway.
An Apple a day keeps the IRS away.
Jobs for everyone.

I am not sure it would be possible for him to change out of that blank turtlneck and bluejeans... but I can already see the slogans.
When you vote for Steve, you vote for Jobs.
Steve Jobs, the iPresident!

After all, who could resist attacking another country to show off our nice Blueberry bombers, using our new Raspberry radar technology, and firing off our arsenal of iNuke X 10.2 ICBMs (with leopard print warheads). Military tech has been stuck in the same putrid earthy shades of green and brown for far too long!
Just gotta wonder how well those translucent plastic helmets will protect the heads of our soldiers....
NO CARRIER
Due to the seperation of church and state.
Steve cannot be both God and President without violating some part of the constitution.
Of course, given recent events, that 'problem' can probably be remiedied.
Two years after becoming President, Steve Jobs becomes fed up with the bueracracy and leaves suddenly to start up his own country in his Palo Alto Garage.
"Can of worms? The can is open... the worms are everywhere."
..a government official who'll break down the tough choices so that the American public will vote on which color they like better.
*hoping that comment's poke at the iMac isn't too obscure.*
"Derp de derp."
Jobs probably is probably miles ahead of the other candidates when it comes to foreign policy, particularly the Iraq issue. The Jobs solution? Simple: Oust Saddam, set up a puppet government, rename the country "iRaq", and insist that cartographers color it "lickable raspberry" on all their maps. Not to mention replacing militant Islam with a hip, edgy new "switch" campaign.
The iRaqis would find themselves embraced by the developed world!

We've gotta shush this now before it's too late. If Bill Gates hears about it he'll spend billions to run just so he can keep up.
Did this help Perot or kill him ? :) If Bill Gates ran that would ensure that Larry Ellison did as well, if for no other reason than to keep up with BG...
errr....umm...*whooosh* *whoosh* Is this thing on ?
I would vote for him if he would be willing to accept a yearly sallery of $1; infact, he'd have to demand it. It's not like he doesn't already have enough going on, with Apple and Pixar as it is.

... the US is already run by big companies as it is, lets just go ahead & finish the job....

There is a war going on for your mind.
The White House will remain white, but all the plaster will be replaced with translucent white plastic.
The capitol dome will be redone in anodized aluminum. It will also have firewire.
Your mind is squeezed by a blast of pain!
Coming soon to the US Army: iTanks in blueberry!
Karma: Excellent (Mainly due to Bill & Ted's Karma Adventure)
We could elect Richard Stallman provided that we decided to rename the country GNUnited States of America.
Steve Jobs. Insanely Great.
Steve Jobs. Vote Different.
Well, Bush was a drunken, crackhead jock. Surely this must be an imporvemnt even if you do believe everything you read or see in a movie about Jobs?
Barbara Walters: So, Mr. Jobs, why do you want to be President?
Steve Jobs: I don't want to sell sugared computers for the rest of my life. I want to change the world!
I didn't think the house band in Hell would play this badly.

XML causes global warming.
"Linus can't run. You've got to be born in the U.S. to be eligible for the office of President"
Oh please. Bush was raised by monkeys... I can't see them rejecting a Finn.

So, I was having these negotiations with North Korea over their Nukes, and then all of a sudden, they were like boom boom boom boom boom and then South Korea was gone. North Korea, ate South Korea.
It was kinda.....a bummer.
Karma: Not Particularly Funny.
The economy is in the shitter and techies have spoken, what they said was "We want more *jobs*!"
four-oh-four
Should I assume you're saying this because Clinton got a blowjob while Dubya has to ask Bush Sr. for permission first?
I can just vision the Steve Jobs version of the White House
Jobs: Required no help building computers that nobody bought.
Bush: Who needs books!
Jobs: Who needs gigahertz!
Bush: Thinks that, somewhere up there, John Wayne is smiling down on him.
Jobs: Feels pretty sure that Einstein, Amelia Earhardt, Gandhi and Lennon all want to come back from the dead to buy Macs from him.
Bush: Proved that it's possible to be a drunken slacker, then marry Laura Ingalls Wilder, and suddenly be considered "presidential material."
Jobs: Proved that it's possible to make blueberry computers and not be considered gay.
Bush: Thanks his lucky stars every day that the "war on terrorism" saved his ass.
Jobs: Thanks his lucky stars every time Apple issues its quarterly report knowing that, somewhere out there, Steve Ballmer is working on a new dance routine.
Legalize it maaaaannnn.
Marijuana that is.. You know Jobs will try..
Zoot!
I can't wait to hear the "Oh, and one more thing". What could it be? iVote? Cuba has been "aquired"? The justice department is suddenly a lot more interested in putting the screws to Microsoft? That last one is my guess.
Angleyne: You can't bend that girder - it's unbendable! Bender: Well I don't know anything about lifting, so that ju
